My first time in June, I made a 158, which when paired with my GPA (3.6 with honors) is good enough to get into where I want to go. I was then told that a couple of more points would get me into scholarship territory, so I decided to take it again this Saturday. The first time, I took the Kaplan online course and about 6 full-length tests, averaging around a 158. This time around, my motivation wasn't as high so I didn't take any classes and just started looking at problems earlier this month, taking my first practice test a week ago. It was a 163, my highest ever. Then tonight, I took my second one and made a 167. I honestly feel that having the whole summer to be LSAT-free really helped me. Has anyone else experienced this?

Not a whole summer, but a lot of people have seen benefits from taking a week or more off. I could see it being the case.
